Bath re-enamelling in Peverell, done in place

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

What we are called out for in Peverell

Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Several chips and rust patches

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Peverell

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Peverell. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Peverell: your questions answered

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in Peverell

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
